The IF WIDTH tuning system allows you to vary the width of the DSP IF passband, to reduce or eliminate interference.
Moreover, the bandwidth may actually be expanded from its default setting, should you wish to enhance incoming sig-
nal delity when interference on the band is low.
1. Press the
F
button to display the function
menu list. Touch the
[

icon to activate this
function and cause the
knob to function as
the WIDTH adjustment knob.

2. Rotate the
knob counter-clockwise to narrow
the bandwidth and reduce interference.
Referring to Figure “
B
”, you can see the default
bandwidth of the SSB mode.
By rotating the
knob to the left, the band-
width will narrow
(
see Figure “
A
”
)
, while rota-
tion of the
knob to the right, will increase
the bandwidth as depicted in Figure “
”.
The default bandwidths, and total bandwidth ad-
justment range, will vary according to the operat-
ing mode:
SSB Mode: 1.8 kHz - 3.2 kHz
(
default: 2.4 kHz
)
.
CW Mode: 500 Hz - 3 kHz
(
default: 2.4 kHz

AM Mode: Fixed at 9 kHz
FM/DATA-FM/C4FM Modes: Fixed at 16 kHz
